Learn Watercolour Painting in a studio class
Melbourne watercolour painting class - beginners - paint and sip this week in Northcote
Think watercolour is just for serious artists? Think again.
At Paint With Me, our watercolour paint and sip classes are designed for people who have never touched a brush in their lives -- and people who secretly have but needed a good excuse to try again. Every week, our fine arts qualified artists guide you through a beautiful watercolour painting from start to finish, step by step, at a pace that actually makes sense.
Our Northcote studio is warm, relaxed, and always stocked with everything you need. You bring yourself (and your drinks, because yes, it's BYO). We bring the paint, the paper, the brushes, the guidance, and everything to have a creative good time.
Watercolour is one of those mediums that looks intimidating until the moment it starts to work! Then when it does, it really works. Watching colour bloom across your artwork, learning how to let the pigment do its thing, finishing the night with a painting you want to show off. Sound good to you? Well that's the Paint With Me experience.
Whether you are looking for something fun to do on a weeknight, or planning a low-key catch-up with friends that has nothing to do with screens, this class delivers that and more!
No experience required, all skill levels welcome, and all materials are provided.

FAQ
Do I need any art experience? Not at all. Our artists walk you through every step from start to finish. If you can hold a brush, you can do this.
What do I need to bring? Just yourself and whatever food and drinks you'd like. All art materials are provided.
What's different about watercolour vs a regular paint and sip? Watercolour has its own techniques like wet-on-wet, colour blending, letting the paint do the work. Our sessions make those accessible and fun for complete beginners.
